Part I: Industry 4.0 and drivers for change -- What is Industry 4.0? -- The global environmental imperative -- Industry 4.0 and drivers for social sustainability -- Circular construction -- Part II: Innovation in construction -- Fundamentals of Innovation -- Challenges to Innovation in Construction -- Cutting edge practical research on generative design, IoT and digital twins -- Artificial intelligence and data in civil engineering -- Potential application of blockchain technology to transform the construction industry -- Parametric design - A drive towards a sustainable future -- Construction industry transformation through modular methods -- Construction 3D printing: Challenges and opportunities for the construction industry -- Material design, additive manufacturing and performance of cement based materials -- Systems engineering and technology management methodology for the development of construction robots -- Part III: Practical strategies for innovation in practice -- Some changes are invisible to the eyes: Transformation of business models, organizations and cultures -- The next engineers: Equipping industry for the future of construction -- The new generation of construction skills: Transition from onsite to offsite -- Concluding remarks.

This book tackles the complex topic of implementing innovation and the successful application of advanced technology in the construction industry. It provides a practical guide for the transformation of the industry by detailing appropriate and effective implementation methods, required skill sets and structural changes necessary to facilitate the practical and innovative application of technology. The construction industry is behind other industries in its level of innovation and adoption of technology, and is of critical importance to many of today's global challenges, such as climate change, global warming and resource scarcity. There is therefore a need for smarter and more efficient ways of managing available resources. This book elaborates on how the innovative application of technology could offer hope for the construction industry in it's imperative to rise to current and future global challenges. It includes the real-world case studies of innovative projects that go beyond the current state-of-the-art academic research, and have improved productivity, quality and performance in the construction sector. This book provides readers from both industrial and academic backgrounds with a comprehensive guide on transforming the construction industry with the efficient and effective implementation of technologies and modern methods of construction.
